Pre-assignment details
This study consisted of 3 phases: a 2-week placebo run-in phase, an 8-week treatment phase, and a 0- to 3-week taper phase. In the run-in phase, placebo was administered once daily for 2 weeks. In the treatment phase, paroxetine or placebo was orally administered once daily for 8 weeks. In the taper phase, the dose was gradually reduced.
Participants by arm
| Arm | Count |

| Placebo Participants took placebo once daily in the treatment phase (8 weeks) and the taper phase (0 to 3 weeks). | 27 |
| Paroxetine Paroxetine at the initial dose of 10 milligrams (mg) was orally administered once daily for the first 2 weeks of the treatment phase. In the next 6 weeks, paroxetine 10 to 20 mg for participants aged 7 to 11 years or 10 to 40 mg for participants aged 12 to 17 years was orally administered. The dose was up-titrated by one level at a time (an increment of 10 mg/day) at intervals of at least 2 weeks based on clinical judgment. During the taper phase (0 to 3 weeks), the last dose level in the treatment phase was reduced by 10 mg/day at intervals of 1 week to the final dose level of 10 mg/day. | 29 |

Each question is graded on a 5- or 7-point scale. The highest possible score is 113 (the most severe measure of depression), and the lowest is 17 (not suffering from depression). CDRS-R scores were assessed by the investigator. The change from Baseline in the CDRS-R total score was calculated as the total score at Week 8 minus the total score at Baseline. The data were adjusted with the total score at Baseline.
Time frame: Baseline and Week 8
Population: Full Analysis Set (FAS): all participants who entered the treatment phase, but excluding participants without the target indication, participants who received no tablet of the treatment phase medication, or participants who had no post-baseline CDRS-R data. The analysis was performed on the last observation carried forward (LOCF) dataset.
